I didn't see another thread

the field should be pretty wide open this year for the men especially, nadal, fed, djok, murray, maybe roddick(ha!) or safin

nadal claims to have adapted his game to the hard court

on the women's side I hope that cutie jelana dokic goes far, she's made a come back after her dad stopped beating her

watched a little of the hewitt gonzo match the other night. nothing really spectacular.

time difference makes it hard for me to catch all that much of this tourney.

i've also heard that nadal is sporting sleeves for this tournament.

i saw a pic. it makes him look like much less of a douchebag than before.

1/22/2009 2:13:10 AM

1/22/2009 2:32:40 PM

1/22/2009 3:24:10 PM

im ok with the jankovic pics, as long as her face isn't in them

1/22/2009 5:04:19 PM

^ completely agree, the picture i posted is borderline too much grill

1/22/2009 5:10:58 PM

love this time of year... cant sleep, there is always tennis on

1/22/2009 9:23:04 PM

i started a thread on tennis in general, but this thread is doing a lot better

I never can sleep during the aussie because of all the late night tennis

Right now my Juan Martin Del Potro is in a struggle with Gilles Muller, who made a nice run to end the season last year

1/22/2009 9:27:38 PM

I was gonna say, that stretch is almost as long as her face

1/22/2009 10:03:52 PM

has there been any major upset yet?

1/22/2009 11:41:05 PM

1/23/2009 12:06:00 AM

This is why I love having a midnight shift (and a tv)!

1/23/2009 1:04:34 AM

^^^I saw that and I was like WTF?? Blake with a UNC hat...that's just messed up

1/23/2009 11:27:49 AM

^^^that was funny, they had just interviewed the girl, and then she gets taken out by a chair

1/23/2009 1:37:08 PM

haha yeah that was hilarious, tennis could use some more violent rivalries like that

1/23/2009 2:36:38 PM

too bad ivanovic lost. don't mind some eye candy while watching a good tennis player.

1/23/2009 3:53:01 PM

that gonzales-gasquet match was a classic

1/24/2009 2:03:45 PM

Blake is friends with Tripp Phillips who's the assistant coach for the men's tennis team at UNC. I've seen him wearing UNC gear before.

1/24/2009 2:23:49 PM

^^^theres still some good eye candy left

1/24/2009 3:15:33 PM

federer gettin challenged

1/25/2009 12:45:31 AM

gotta love tennis at 2 am

why does federer's girlfriend look like this

and not this

1/25/2009 2:28:52 AM

seriously. he's dating minnie driver's ugly twin

1/25/2009 2:30:27 AM

federer ftmfw

1/25/2009 2:32:32 AM

Berdych had him dead to rights too.. Roddick has rolled so far, hopefully he can keep it going

1/25/2009 2:52:02 AM

1/25/2009 3:11:40 AM

federer said what now bitches!

1/25/2009 4:50:10 PM

i think berdych thought for a second that he might win the match. fail.

1/25/2009 8:34:50 PM

what a shitty ass day so far, I liked that girl and am getting kind of sick of serena, I hope someone didn't poison her food or something

1/25/2009 11:29:57 PM

whose gonna win it?

1/26/2009 11:07:34 PM

When is the Roddick/Djokovic match?

Oh snap it just started...man now I am not going to get any sleep.

1/26/2009 11:12:10 PM

yeah this might be good

1/26/2009 11:17:13 PM

142 degrees on court!

close the roof already

1/27/2009 1:32:30 AM

looking good for roddick!

1/27/2009 1:36:11 AM

what a pussy

1/27/2009 1:39:20 AM

man that was tough to watch, I would have been puking my guts out if i was out there

1/27/2009 1:54:01 AM

how bout I bet on Roddick to win even though he was a pretty big underdog, but the bet was a push because the other guy quit early and they didnt finish all the games

1/27/2009 3:38:49 AM

big win for roddick, only to get to play/lose to federer next...

hopefully he doesnt lose

1/27/2009 7:55:45 AM

djokovich looked like a holocaust victim during that match.

1/27/2009 2:10:41 PM

OMGurgoingtohell

1/27/2009 2:36:28 PM

I doubt that anyone else is even up but Feds and Andy are about to play. Bye Andy.

1/28/2009 3:33:22 AM

Just kidding. I was fooled into thinking they were playing. Instead it's Rafa and Simon. Feds plays wins tomorrow.

1/28/2009 4:08:58 AM

^Yea i noticed that too, for some reason ESPN kept saying that Rog and Roddick were playing. Maybe they were trying to trick people in to caring enough?

1/28/2009 8:24:39 AM

andy is moving a lot better this year, thanks to stefanki. still not being aggressive enough imo. fed beats him in straight sets. probably won't be as embarassing as when they played in the semis in 2007, but i wouldnt be surprised.

1/28/2009 1:42:52 PM

^That's the one flaw I've noticed too about Roddick. Sometimes (i.e. first set tiebreak vs. Djokovic) he just started pushing the ball for some reason.

If Roddick plays aggressive and wins the big points tonight, he will win in four. But he usually loses to Fed because he loses the swing points in tiebreaks, break points, etc. IMO at least
